Agony
My chest feel like it's going to explode
Overwhelmed by pain
Depression
Tracks make way for fresh tears to fall
They always ask
"Why are you sad?"
Can't they tell the difference?
Between tears of saddness
And tears of suffering?

Is it dark,
Where you are?
Does depression drip down
Like a cold leak inside of the cave
Sending shivers down to your very core
Your only warmth; the tears running down your cheeks
But even they become chilled over time
Until you're left with nothing
And alone you sit
In your leaky
Dark...
Cavernous cave
Waiting to die in this freezing cold place
Instead of lighting a fire

Cover the mirrors!
For you're far too beautiful
You may blind yourself

Sweet things are said sweetly
Confections whispered into the ear
You open your soul for the luscious 'knight'
Candied are his words
Sugar coating the heart with a delicate shell
This sugary Candy Man will eat at this heart so decadent
Leaving you with the cavity

Do you feel it?
Yourself going crazy?
Diving deep into insanity
drowning in your mad thoughts
Sure you'll come up for air now and then
Clinging to flimsy shreds of normalcy
But just as soon, you'll sink deep
Into the depths of your lunacy...
Enjoy your swim.
Sometimes I let the crazy out.

Like metal striking stone
A spark ignites the mind
Setting aflame the heart and soul
Thoughts, like smoke, rise
To this ceiling of emotion
That must come pouring out
In order to extinguish this fire
Into steady glowing embers
That slowly, and consistently, burn within
Until that little spark comes again
As it always does:
*This is poetry

I cant lose myself
While trying to find you
You've forgotten you I am
So let me remind you
I'm the one who stayed
When everyone watched you hit the ground
... Stay down...
... Stay down...
Help is on the way
